Always hits the spot when we’re in the mood for a solid Cuban sandwich. We almost always order that and some empanadas and have never been let down. If you’re on the fence, give it a try.

Do not eat here! They overcharge you and do not want to answer the phone because no one there speaks English! I purchased the codfish which was $26 and some change and after taxes it was $29. I look into my account and they overcharged me $20 when pending in my account and when they charge went through, they overcharge me $10 - when I didn’t order anything else! So instead of them fixing this, I’m leaving this review. And it’s sad because my sister and I dubbed this as a favorite place to eat as we’ve been there about four times already. Be careful because on the website on their menu, there are no pricesand look at your receipts because they will overcharge you! As of this current post, I called about five minutes ago and the guy hung up on me and I tried to call back again and he doesn’t want to answer. I think if they are going to assist the public and someone there needs to learn how to speak English

Outstanding service and ambiance, plus the Rabo (Oxtail) with black beans and rice was delicious! Great authentic Cuban restaurant in LA.

Excellent Cuban/Caribbean food. This place has been a favorite of mine for more than a decade and what they serve, they prepare well. Nothing flashy, just solid food.

All our food was just perfect and authentic. We had the ropa vieja and the sirloin steak. The yuca was delicious. Salad was fresh. Everything absolutely delicious.
This is my favorite place to eat in LA. Their food reminds me of my grandmothers cooking!! It’s so delicious and comforting. The only thing is that I miss the boliche but hopefully it comes back on the menu one day :)
*Important news!!! The boliche is back and more delicious than I remember! This and the pollo al horno (with a side of plantains) holds us as our FAVORITE dinner in LA. Hands down!

Great food but, it’s hit and miss with friendly/professional staff. I’ve been a customer for years and, customer service changed in the last year. Case in point, walked in with 50 minutes before closing (9/1/24) and was met by the waitress/hostess which rudely said they were closed.

3 of us came to eat at Baracoa Cuban Cafe. Bread was freshly made with butter. There was plenty of available parking. All 3 of us ordered different items. The food looked so good, we forgot to take pictures. All 3 of us thought our plates were delicious. We recommend this restaurant. Closed on Tuesdays.
Vegetarian options: The salads are definitely vegetarian. There are rice and beans. There are options.
Kid-friendliness: Accessible to all.
Wheelchair accessibility: May need assistance with door. The rest is highly accessible.

Last night I was there and I bought the best empanadas I tasted in the United States in addition to some potato balls that for God's sake were so delicious! My heart burst with flavors! Thank you for cooking so good, I want to go back and try more things from the menu. I highly recommend this place. I loved that the lady who took care of us was confused when we asked for the flavor of the empanadas and gave them to us as a gift so that we can try another flavor.

I ordered suckling pig with rice and beans and ripe ones, it is delicious but they served me little suckling pig, like a leaf, very little and without leather, which is what I didn't like and for the price they should give a good assortment of suckling pig. That's why they failed.
